What I am LOVING right NOW!

I LOVE FALL!! I can't say it enough...this is by far my favorite time of year. I love the cooler weather, football season (homecoming), bonfires and just the ability to relax outside without having to sweat your balls off!! ;) I love curling up in my sweatpants or jeans and hoodie....or one of my 4 puffy vests!! :)

I miss watching the trees change color in Ohio, we have to go to the mountains to experience the Aspens changing color and needless to say that is not very high on my list right now.

I was reading b*spoke blog the other night and she has AMAZING Fall pictures from Minnesota that I thought I would share with everyone:



Doesn't this make you want to move to Minnesota!! :)




I really enjoy changing my wallflowers in the house to all Fall scents and burning my Fall scented candles....My favorite candles are Slatkin and CO from Bath and Body Works. We actually just stocked up during the last sale and right now I am burning Mint Chocolate Chip...a new winter scent. And it truly smells like Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream...it is delicious!




Lou and I have been enjoying the Halloween Candy and have been snacking on Candy Corn..I think more Lou than Me!!




I have recently been on a mission!! I really want to wear boots over my jeans but in my opinion "skinny" maternity jeans might be a tad bit of an oxymoron!! :) However I am on the hunt to find some cute boots to wear over my jeans....I will get back to you on if I find "skinny" maternity jeans!



Since our last trip to Ohio this September I was turned on to 31 bags! They seem to be a huge hit in Ohio...I had not nor had any of my friends here ever heard of them. However, now I am obsessed with them! I love all the fun patterns and the fact that any of them can be monogrammed. I am pretty sure after the baby comes and has been named I will have to place another order, but for now I am having a catalog party so if anyone wants to experience 31 bags for yourself send me an email and I will help you place an order.





Also, I have really wanted a pair of the quilted ugg boots...then I find this picture and I think to myself my baby really needs a pair of those boots too because they are just TOO CUTE! However I am pretty sure Louis would KILL me if I ordered a pair off of etsy boutique Snow Boutique, but they do come in an oatmeal color that I am pretty sure would be gender neutral! I am going to keep my eye on them ;)



I guess I better start saving my allowance if I am going to be purchasing all these boots for myself! Or maybe just hope a pair of quilted uggs or knockoff uggs are waiting for me under the Christmas tree this year (that is if I can wait that long!!)

These are a few of my favorite things right now, but I must say my number one favorite thing right now is feeling our baby kick!! It is amazing...I can't even describe the way it feels and the way it makes me feel! It is even more fun that when I talk to the baby it gets excited and kicks even more! So in a month or two when I can't sleep because the baby is constantly kicking and keeping me up feel free to remind me of this post and how I raved about how much I LOVE it!!



And NO this is not my belly!! At least not yet!! And don't worry Cassie I will post a new bump picture this weekend

I hope you have a wonderful Fall weekend, we are headed to a wedding tomorrow at a gorgeous resort in Manitou Springs. For all my Athens friends, I will be thinking about you enjoying homecoming...I think I figured out this is the first time I have missed homecoming in the last 7 years! I must admit I am sad that we are missing it...but next year it will be that much more fun when we get to share the OU homecoming experience with our little bambino!

So I leave you all with a question, what are your favorite things right now? Leave a comment and share....you never know I might become obsessed with your favorites too :)

  1. Fall is my favorite season too...always has been. At the beach we don't get any change...gotta drive about 3 hours west to see that...so, loved your photos of Minnesota.....not sure I want to live there, but a visit in Autumm would be just perfect. I am sure the Aspens are beautiful...they are beautiful when they have green leaves!!
